SUMMARY: In compliance with 44 U.S.C. 3507, FDA has submitted the following proposed collection of information to OMB for review and clearance. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Interstate Shellfish Dealers Certificate—(OMB Control Number 0910–0021)—Extension Under 42 U.S.C. 243, FDA is required to cooperate with and aid State and local authorities in the enforcement of their health regulations and is authorized to assist States in the prevention and suppression of communicable diseases. Under this authority, FDA participates with State regulatory agencies, some foreign nations, and the molluscan shellfish industry in the National Shellfish Sanitation Program (NSSP). NSSP is a voluntary, cooperative program to promote the safety of molluscan shellfish by providing for the classification and patrol of shellfish growing waters and for the inspection and certification of shellfish processors. Each participating State and foreign nation monitors its molluscan shellfish processors and issues certificates for those that meet the State or foreign shellfish control authority’s criteria. Each participating State and nation provides a certificate of its certified shellfish processors to FDA on Form FDA 3038, ‘‘Interstate Shellfish Dealer’s Certificate.’’ FDA uses this information to publish the ‘‘Interstate Certified Shellfish Shippers List,’’ a monthly comprehensive listing of all molluscan shellfish processors certified under the cooperative program. If FDA did not collect the information necessary to compile this list, participating States would not be able to identify and keep out shellfish processed by uncertified processors in other States and foreign nations. Consequently, NSSP would not be able to control the distribution of uncertified and possibly unsafe shellfish in interstate commerce, and its effectiveness would be nullified. In the Federal Register of April 11, 2006 (71 FR 18339), FDA published a 60–day notice requesting public comment on the information collection provisions. No comments were received. FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows: TABLE 1.—ESTIMATED ANNUAL REPORTING BURDEN1 No. of Respondents FDA Form No. 3038 1There 39 Total Annual Responses 62 Hours per Respondent 2,418 Total Hours .10 242 are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information.

Interstate Shellfish Dealers Certificate--(OMB Control Number 0910-
0021)--Extension

    Under 42 U.S.C. 243, FDA is required to cooperate with and aid 
State and local authorities in the enforcement of their health 
regulations and is authorized to assist States in the prevention and 
suppression of communicable diseases. Under this authority, FDA 
participates with State regulatory agencies, some foreign nations, and 
the molluscan shellfish industry in the National Shellfish Sanitation 
Program (NSSP).
    NSSP is a voluntary, cooperative program to promote the safety of 
molluscan shellfish by providing for the classification and patrol of 
shellfish growing waters and for the inspection and certification of 
shellfish processors. Each participating State and foreign nation 
monitors its molluscan shellfish processors and issues certificates for 
those that meet the State or foreign shellfish control authority's 
criteria. Each participating State and nation provides a certificate of 
its certified shellfish processors to FDA on Form FDA 3038, 
``Interstate Shellfish Dealer's Certificate.'' FDA uses this 
information to publish the ``Interstate Certified Shellfish Shippers 
List,'' a monthly comprehensive listing of all molluscan shellfish 
processors certified under the cooperative program. If FDA did not 
collect the information necessary to compile this list, participating 
States would not be able to identify and keep out shellfish processed 
by uncertified processors in other States and foreign nations. 
Consequently, NSSP would not be able to control the distribution of 
uncertified and possibly unsafe shellfish in interstate commerce, and 
its effectiveness would be nullified.
    In the Federal Register of April 11, 2006 (71 FR 18339), FDA 
published a 60-day notice requesting public comment on the information 
collection provisions. No comments were received.
    FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as 
follows:
